we bought a car!

britishbride05 · January 2009

I first have to say (and I'm sorry if I offend anyone who owns one): I HATE big cars. I mean I loathe them. I hate gas guzzling, environmentally damaging suvs. And here DH and I are searching through them and station wagons trying to find something that will fit not only Abby, but her stroller and groceries and other things we load the car up with on a weekly basis.

Our Corolla was os tiny, I could barely fit in the front seat because I had to push the chair all the way up so the graco safeseat would fit in the back. I'm 5'9"!! So I was always feeling really cramped lol So, we gave in and decided to purchase a used car. We bought a 2006 Chrysler Pacifica (red), so it's not huuuuuge and doesn't guzzle too much gas, so that's a plus!!

I never liked big cars much myself, but my RAV4 is awesome and when I bought it I actually picked it because it had better gas mileage than my Mitsu Eclipse. How messed up is that? The newer SUV's all have better mileage than they used to, the technology is improving a lot.

PS I just replied about the Miami SAHM gtg.
